About ONRAMP

75% of our nation's freight is moved by truck and the underlying payments systems are fundamentally broken, relying on unreliable legacy technology from the 1980s. Join ONRAMP to build payments infrastructure that's purpose-built for transportation, tackling a massive opportunity in freight payments and creating a more efficient future.
ONRAMP is backed by top supply chain & fintech VC firms, with executives who have led teams at AmEx and Wex. You will find a team of individuals bringing their best to the table and working together openly to challenge the highly profitable, slow-moving incumbents that have dominated for decades.

What we’re looking for

This engineering position will lead our API infrastructure development and API integrations with partners that power ONRAMP’s advanced transportation payments platform. As we evolve into a multi-product strategy that includes software, our underlying API integrations are key to enabling innovation at pace.

Responsibilities

  • Build ONRAMP’s API infrastructure, tooling, and documentation.
  • Ensure our APIs are secure, reliable, and performant.
  • Solve product problems and build delightful API and developer experiences for our internal and external users.
  • Own our third-party API integrations with TMS, telematics, and other partners.
  • Work across different products, tech stacks, and programming languages.
  • Work collaboratively with Engineering, Product, and Commercial teams to ensure our API integrations are aligned to business, customer, and partner needs.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of experience as a software engineer (start-up or another fast-paced work environment)
  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
  • A strong passion for API design and amazing developer experiences.
  • Comfortable with ambiguity and changing requirements in an evolving environment.
  • Strong technical background and experience with various software development methodologies.
  • Security mindset with knowledge of API authentication and access mechanisms (such as OAuth, JWT).
  • Experience with Go, Postgres, and scalable infrastructure (such as Kubernetes, Serverless, Lambda) and cloud providers (such as AWS, Azure, GCP).
  • Ability to effectively communicate with Customers and Partners, demonstrating clarity, humility, and precision.
  • Low ego and excited to work across various functions to help move the business forward.
  • Based in New York City, or willing to relocate.
  • Legally qualified to work in the US.

Benefits

  • Health, dental, and vision insurance.
  • Meaningful equity in an industry-changing startup.
  • 401k plan.
